Dear Girl Scout Family,
Last Thursday after dinner my family shuffled through ads and mapped out routes. They kept trying to hand me ads but I just shook my head. Black Friday shopping is not for me. I love a great deal but there are limits.
Now that being said, when I find a great deal I find a way to share it with everyone who may benefit. Which brings me to the REAL purpose of my column today. I want to make sure everyone hears about 1-2-3 Grow Your Troop.
Between now and January 15 we are offering special rewards for troops who reach out to invite more girls to join their troop. There's shop coupons, certificates, and a whole lot more. In fact, troops who serve 3 more girls can get about $150 worth of merchandise and discounts. Every troop is automatically entered. Please be sure and talk with your daughter's Troop Leader before extending an invitation. We appreciate our volunteers! and we want to make sure this fits into their plans for the year. If you have any questions, please visit gslakesandpines.org or call our office for details. And I thought Girl Scouting was a great deal before! Now, it's over the top! In Girl Scouting, Tauna
